SOPA - Stop Online Piracy Act
The Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) is a United States bill introduced by U.S. Representative Lamar S. Smith (R-TX) to expand the ability of U.S. law enforcement to fight online trafficking in copyrighted intellectual property and counterfeit goods. Provisions include the requesting of court orders to bar advertising networks and payment facilities from conducting business with infringing websites, and search engines from linking to the sites, and court orders requiring Internet service providers to block access to the sites. The law would expand existing criminal laws to include unauthorized streaming of copyright material, imposing a maximum penalty of five years in prison.
Basically the law want to stop downloads of the things that could / should be purchased and all the websites that do not agree with the law (Google, Wikipedia, Facebook, Twitter,etc).
So we won't be able to watch our tv shows, movies, download games or make everything cool that we want on the internet
